These headphones are really nice. They offer a lot of cushion on the ears. They are adjustable to fit multiple ages. The carrying cases are a very nice feature. The best thing about these though, is the auto off feature. I was going through tons and tons of batteries with my old head sets. I have had these for 6 months and have not had to change the batteries at all!! These headphones synced right up with our van's DVD system. Very good product at a good price. Highly recommend!

Great purchase. Much less $ than the dealer. Excellent battery life due to auto-off feature. Crisp clear sound with great range. Can use wired also.

The Farenheit HP-11S turned out to have several potentially useful features - although I wasn't able to evaluate them because my copy of the headphones worked only sporadically, and then only when within a few feet of the transmitter (less than half the range of the unit it was hoped to replace). Its fold-flat feature and the auto-off feature would have been especially useful in my situation. It was also fairly inexpensive.

I was unable to find any complete description of the product before I purchased it, so I discovered most of the unit's features only when reading the descriptions on the package. It would have been helpful - especially for comparison purposes - if more detailed info had been available while I was comparing alternative products.

The biggest piece of missing info was the unit's operating frequency. This made it impossible to determine whether the unit was compatible with my existing transmitter prior to purchase. Because the unit turned out (apparently) not to be compatible, it was not usable because it did not have an included transmitter of its own, and I was unable to determine whether any compatible transmitter is available for it.

Although I could not tell for sure whether my unit was simply incompatible with my transmitter, or if the unit itself was defective in some way, I suspect that most of the negative aspects here stem primarily from lack of needed info prior to purchase.

I'm afraid I was 'Taken" this time. Your plug for these wireless headphones never said ' Without transmitter'. I'll use them as a spare set of ' Wired ' phones for my stereo system. Amazon sold me on a Pig in a Poke. Please edit your copy to reflect the actual product and its purpose. Jim Dutra

Bought these for my after-market TView DVD Player. They came in a nice case. Very comfortable for my 10 year-old's head and worked out of the box.

There is also a plug to use with a CD, MP3 player if you have a male-male 3.5 in. My son plugged in his ipod headphones only to discover they also will play out through that jack. He had to turn the volume up to hear from both but you could let a friend listen in a pinch with that jack.

Overall it was a great buy at the $24 I paid.

One day I turned them to put them on my kiddo when the whole ear piece wires connected fell off! No one broke them but it looked like from rotating them often to put away after use. We had them I think 4 months before this happened. I also tried to fix it but even if I was to super glue the plastic piece inside where it rotates that caused the break the wires were messed up from it falling off as it did when I went to rotate it. Now I am surprised this did not happen sooner as I looked at it and the plastic used it cheap where you rotate the ear piece which is what caused the issue. So don't fold them up after each use and they will last longer. Do not give to children or they will break quicker unless you have good kids whom won't ever play with them or pull them. When they did work though they worked great with our mini van DVD player. I also liked the auto off feature to save battery's.

I bought two of these as replacements for the infrared headphones we had in our van. They are more compact than the old ones and actually fit the kids better and came with their own individual cases, which will hopefully help them last longer. The sound quality is excellent. The only problem is that sometimes if my daughter isn't sitting exactly right, she loses the signal and has to lean in towards the middle of the van to pick it up again. Otherwise, a great value for the price.

Its does perform, but barely.
Lots of interference from car electronics, we have a Toyota Sienna Mini van, have the tvs behind the head set.
the kids hear a hi pitch sound whick makes the audible portion barely hearable.
would not buy again, actually will try to return.

These wireless earphones worked great. Very happy with. The only thing is they seemed a little fragile but worked really well. Kids can break them easily.

Worked as soon as I turned them on. They even came with A case so the kids can put them away protected. Love them I would recommend them to anyone.
